Quarantine

Guest Author, Laila Sanchez, 10 years old


Quarantine with my team, it's an everyday thing
So today, I'm gonna rap and let the bells ring.

COVID 19 got us all quarantined.
Quarantine ain't bad nor good
But staying safe is what we know we should do
To remain safe, we must stay in place
And if I go outside I need to wear a mask on my face
And make sure all you people know I need six feet of space
Stay away from me and I'll stay away from you

20 seconds later, I am done washing my hand
Press on IG to see what's the jam
Heard that DNice is rocking the Instagram
I hope my grams is playing her part
Staying away from the park
Staying away from the store
Staying away from the mall.

I hope this lockdown don't last till the fall
Gotta get back to school
Gotta get my grove
Gotta get with my girls
So we can be the crew
Virtual learning is cool but is not as smooth
As going back to school

In person I rule, not behind a desk
Man that's stress
Doing it from home got me feeling down.
Gotta go to the party, gotta drive by the home
Say happy birthday, honk the horn and then I'm gone
Back to quarantine, gotta get on my Zoom
Now I'm up in my room in a world full of gloom

It's pandemic though, I won't sweat it
I'm a child of God, yes I go hard
Reach for the stars
Locked down too long
But freedom is not far
Even Dr. King couldn't have a dream for us
Having lockdown from COVID-19
